Grade 10 students have read a number of novels this year set in India, most notably Midnight’s Children and Life of Pi. In order to bring the Indian culture and books to life for the students, teacher Gretchen Arguedas arranged for the class to have lunch at an Indian restaurant and sample the foods that they have read about this year. Students also visited Zoo Boise after reading Life of Pi, which is the story of a boy whose parents own and run a zoo in Pondicherry. After a crazy turn of events, Pi finds himself stuck on a lifeboat with a hyena, a zebra, and a Bengal Tiger.
Looks like everyone enjoyed themselves!
